Green Beans with Herbs


Cuisine: Dairy

Category: vegetable

Servings: 6

Ingredients:

1 tb unsalted butter, softened
3 med garlic cloves, minced or pressed through garlic press (about 1 tablespoon)
1 tsp chopped fresh thyme leaves
1 tsp olive oil
1 lb green beans, stem ends snapped off, beans cut into 2-inch pieces
Salt and ground black pepper
1/4 cup water
2 tsp fresh lemon juice
1 tb chopped fresh parsley


Instructions:

Combine butter, garlic, and thyme in small bowl; set aside. Heat oil in 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat until just smoking. Add beans, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper; cook, stirring occasionally, until spotty brown, 4 to 6 minutes. Add water, cover, and cook until beans are bright green and still crisp, about 2 minutes. Remove cover, increase heat to high, and cook until water evaporates, 30 to 60 seconds. Add butter mixture and continue to cook, stirring frequently, until beans are crisp-tender, lightly browned, and beginning to wrinkle, 1 to 3 minutes longer. Transfer beans to serving bowl, toss with lemon juice and parsley; adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve immediately. not tried
